Patent heel shoes

Style, elegance, classics - it's all about patent leather heels. Correctly selected patent leather shoes will create a spectacular look, emphasize femininity.

Such shoes gained particular popularity in the late 70s - early 80s, the time of creativity of Yves Saint Laurent, Giorgio Armani. The time of neoclassicism, everything plastic, bright, artificial. But women of fashion quickly became fed up with such a bright variety, and patent shoes were forgotten for almost a quarter of a century. Now patent leather shoes have gained popularity again. On the shelves and in fashion magazines, you can see thousands of pairs of different shades and models. With so many shoes to choose from, making the right choice is not easy.

The most famous patent heels and timeless classics - black pumps without any embellishments in the form of straps, bows and buckles. The main advantage of such shoes is simplicity and restraint in style. Such a model will put a clear point in any image. They go well with an office suit, evening dress, simple cut jeans. But such an accessory does not tolerate controversy.

Do not wear it with a shiny dress, fancy accessories in the form of giant and metallic jewelry and sequined handbags. Complex cuts should be avoided. A thin lacquer strap or a modest clutch bag would be appropriate. It is not recommended to wear tights with gloss, especially a pattern, to glossy shoes. It is better to choose nude or black transparent stockings.

The next option is elegant dorsal shoes, with a cutout on the side.

Such a model and a heel of medium height (5-7 cm) will brighten up a delicate feminine look, and it will look good with cropped flared trousers.Such patent leather shoes, unlike the classics, are more suitable for a summer light look. Due to the fact that the heel and toe of these shoes are closed, they can and should be worn in the office.

But even here one should not go overboard with accessories, even if the choice fell on the lacquer dorseys of a delicate beige shade, their shine will be noticeable from afar. It is a great success if in the store there is such a model with a “glass” heel: wide at the top and smoothly tapering downward, passing into a thin stiletto heel. Shoes of this kind can be combined with even a formal outfit.

Heeled shoes are often complemented with a strap. Besides fixing the foot, this element is a very noticeable decorative detail. But, it is better to be careful, in combination with varnish, this part should not be burdened with a bulky fastener or a large bow.

For lovers of comfort and style, shoes with a stable heel in the form of a "brick" or "column" are perfect. A large enough heel will support the rounded toe and strap. This model goes well with feminine looks and is more suitable for leggy women of fashion. In the lacquered version, these shoes look more than good and are perfect for the office.

For the warm season, you should choose patent leather shoes with an open toe - a cutout on the toe. Both a small drop-shaped neckline and a wide one that opens all or almost all of the toes look beautiful.

This model is not entirely appropriate in the office and is more suitable for a walk or a party. Shoes of this option go well with a neat feminine image: skirts, classic trousers, shorts, blouses made of light fabrics. The question of whether to wear such shoes with tights still causes a lot of controversy and controversy.

Tights without fingers can become a compromise solution, but do not forget that a perfect manicure remains a condition of such shoes. For varnish models, it is better to select nail polish to match the shoes or leather, transparent varnish is also suitable. This rule also applies to manicure.

The next option is sleekbacks. In such models, the back of the foot is open, instead of the "heel" - a strap with a buckle or elastic. In the lacquered version, it should be remembered that the strap with a buckle should not get out of the way and compete with the shine of the shoes. Slinbacks can be found with a completely different version of the toe - rounded, pointed, open. It is not recommended to wear this model with skinny jeans or tight skirts, but loose-fitting clothes, feminine fluffy skirts and dresses will be a good option.
